Eric reflects on Jesus' cry from the cross, "My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?" (Matthew 27:46), and discovers it isn't a line Jesus composed himself, but the opening words of Psalm 22. Drawing on a UK pastor who leads prisoners in writing their own psalms, the viral footage of a dementia patient roused to song by music from his youth, and Dietrich Bonhoeffer's reflection that the Psalms are the words God gives us when we have none of our own, he asks why song reaches us in a way doctrine and story can't. He closes with an invitation: pray a psalm, or sing a song, right where you actually are, even in the mess, the anger, or the dark.

The Comfortable Words is written and recorded by Eric and Julia Pickerill.
